This 19th-century engraving from the Liszt Collection transports us back in time to an extraordinary expedition into the heart of Africa. The print depicts a scene from the "Narrative of an expedition into the interior of Africa, by the River Niger" chronicled by M. L. and R. A. K. Oldfield in 1832,3, and 4. In this mesmerizing image, we see two steam vessels named Quorra and Alburkah gracefully navigating through the mighty River Niger. The ships stand as symbols of human ingenuity and exploration amidst a vast and untamed landscape. The intricate details captured in this engraving are truly remarkable. The lush vegetation along the riverbanks showcases Africa's rich biodiversity while hinting at both its beauty and challenges for those embarking on such expeditions. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, our imagination runs wild with thoughts of what these brave explorers encountered during their journey. Perhaps they encountered exotic wildlife or interacted with indigenous tribes along their path? This print invites us to delve deeper into their narrative, sparking curiosity about uncharted territories that lay beyond our sight. With every stroke of ink on paper, this engraving serves as a visual testament to humanity's insatiable thirst for knowledge and adventure. It reminds us that there is always more to discover beyond our familiar horizons – whether it be within ourselves or across distant lands like those explored by M. L. and R. A. K Oldfield over a century ago.
